Depicts a great folk art primitive style hunting dog scene with two pointers in the woods accompanied by a hunter in 18th century colonial clothes. It is uniquely signed on the lower right in the shadow of a fallen tree by what looks like the artist B. Schnitzer as shown in the close up photo. Excellent subject matter by a folk artist with a great look to the frame as well that appears to be a gilted internal frame surrounded by recovered wood or a much older, possibly 18th century frame. A very unusual and excellent old 1800’s folk art piece. Condition : Painting is in great condition with some wear and scratches/loss to frame as described in condition details above. No noticeable major defects on the painting itself except for a small half inch scratch to the surface near the front dogs leg as shown in the close up picture and 2-3 tiny pinhead size chips where paint flaked off that is almost impossible to notice unless you look really close. Overall, a great condition painting for the age and could be hung and displayed as is. It measures total in frame at 21 1/4″ x 18 3/8″ with the painting itself at 14 1/8″ x 11 1/4″. The frame is quite nice at about 3 deep with an excellent look of weathering. I think the frame is much older then the painting and has survived with great character. A really unique piece!
